COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONBig, but not huge, this American Chocolate Rye Stout fires off a lot of coffee and chocolate notes. Balances well, but rides high on hop character at 60 IBU’s while the Rye finishes it dry.

Bottle from craft ale house. Pours black with a half inch of khaki foam. Has a bit of citrus on the nose. Leaves a lot of lacing in the glass. Leans slightly to hoppiness on the tongue. Finishes clean. Solid effort.

The beer is black with an inch of beige cap. The aroma brings big dark roast, chocolate, light spice, a touch of hops. The flavor offers a big roasted malt and chocolate bill with hints of coffee and smoke. Rye character emerges mid to late palate and really adds a nice touch. Medium to full bodied and smooth. A delicious beer. I’d have this again.
